Letter From Birmingham Jail Case Analysis Toni Morrision once said‚ “Freeing yourself was one thing‚ claiming ownership of that free self is another.” This quote suggests that it is important to claim your freedom as your own as you move through the new experience of freedom itself. I believe that this is essential principle in the Letter from Birmingham Jail Case Analysis. This principle ties the connection between where people of color currently are and where they want to be.

The whole idea of taking nonviolent actions was due to his Christian beliefs‚ and it’s demonstrated all throughout the “Letter from a Birmingham Jail”.
